Genome-wide association scans identified CTNNBL1 as a novel gene for obesity

TL;DR: A genome-wide association scan for obesity is performed by examining approximately 500 000 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a sample of 1000 unrelated US Caucasians to identify a novel gene, CTNNBL1, which has multiple SNPs associated with body mass index (BMI) and fat mass.
